today i dismantle my dashboard to get a sample of my meter light... wanna scout around electrical shop see where got sell those... plan to change to white...







i think have to change 4 of those so that the background light can change... other small small ones no need la, coz they are for indicators...

PS: i thought sifu sifu here said those with blue tint around the bulb produce white light??... why my original bulbs tinted blue dont produce white light geh???

go and search lo... but vr hard to get suitable one lo..
coz both sets of bulbs u bought wrote bright white on the cover... but end up different colour... sad sad...

anyway, my end results not that satisfying ler... i hope to get the effect like those u find in a harrier... damn bright white... i heard they say harrier use LED instead of bulb... not sure leh... but i surely do hope can get that effect...
